Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Costa Rica gets underway.
  • 5' - Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 10' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Japan that had 79 games and scored 18 goals.
  • 15' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Costa Rica winning 100% of all matches.
  • 20' - Japan seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 25' - It looks like no one’s ball. Japan is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' - Costa Rica is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 35' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Japan needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 40' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
  • 41' - Costa Rica player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 42' - Costa Rica receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 42.
  • 44' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Miki Yamane.
  • 46' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Ayase Ueda departs to be replaced by Takuma Asano.
  • 51' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Daichi Kamada suffering a number of foals already.
  • 56' - Costa Rica looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Keysher Fuller scoring 1 goals.
  • 61' - It’s a booking for Costa Rica player. Celso Borges gets a Yellow card.
  • 62' - The referee calls foul for Celso Borges. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 62' - Kaoru Mitoma is replacing Miki Yamane for the Japan side.
  • 65' - Brandon Aguilera is replacing Gerson Torres for the Costa Rica side.
  • 67' - It is a substitution in Japan team. Ritsu Doan is replaced by Junya Ito on 67 minute.
  • 70' - Francisco Calvo is having his name booked by the referee on 70.
  • 71' - Francisco Calvo was booked on 71.
  • 76' - It looks surprising Costa Rica does not make any changes. Francisco Calvo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 81' - What a strike from Keysher Fuller! The score is 0-1.
  • 82' - The supporters are chanting for Takumi Minamino. He replaces Yuki Soma on 82 minute.
  • 84' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Ko Itakura.
  • 89' - Youstin Salas has so much to prove this time. He replaces Celso Borges on 89 minute.
  • 90' - It’s a booking for Japan player. Wataru Endo gets a Yellow card.
  • 90' - The supporters are chanting for Daniel Chacon. He replaces Joel Campbell on 90 minute.
